You plan to stain your own concrete floors but you have never done it before? This video will help you with the staining portion of the process. The main thing is to prep the concrete properly, but once that's done, staining is super important process. This is where you can make it look great, or ruin the entire look. Also, be careful not to make it too dark or you will never be able to make it lighter again.
Be patient and everything will turn out just fine. Good luck.

We added muriatic acid on this next floor we are doing. Good idea . We diluted the Umber as you suggested too . Hope it takes better with the muriatic acid in it . The last one had areas where all the stain came up . It actually turned out quite nicely tho . Thank you again. I’ve watched this video many times to make sure I’ve not missed anything 🤣

Another great how to video. Do you normally use 2 different color stains? And what do you neutralize the floor with before sealing? Again great how to video.

No, two stains was just based on what customer wanted. We use ammonia and water to neutralize.

Do you apply muratic acid before the stain? or can you just do the the mix like you did in this video? (I have quite glossy concrete) Also how much square foot do you use one gallon of stain to cover? I know the labels usually say 200-400, but what's your opinion?

The man at the store recommended etching first , but the bottle says not to etch . What do you recommend? The customer wants a mottled look . This is my first one ever . Most of the concrete staining companies in my area are pathetic, so I’m gonna do it . I do painting and construction for a living. I want to get this right so I get more work. Thank you 😊

I was told to stain before framing. I was also worried it might hurt the wood getting acid on it. Another thing is do I need to seal all the concrete even under framing?

If you get places where the stain doesn't take, you can take Sinak HLQ125 and tint it with universal colorant and fill in. Check with Surface FX in Santa Barbara, CA. They are a supply house.

When my bardo was being built the manlift left black marks on the concrete. I planned to use brick form brand stain and they say not to use acid based concrete cleaners and I can’t find anything to remove the black marks. Do you have recommendations?

Another great video. I have always wondered since you are doing this after interior framing what do you use to cover the floors while the remainder of the build is completed ? What are best practices for applying the protective construction covering and what is the best way to prevent it from getting damaged during the construction processes?

@TexasBarndominiums 4 жыл бұрын

Ram board or similar. Don’t tape it to floor or you can ruin the sealer.

Why does everyone acid stain. It looks sticky and bad. Several years ago when I built my home I had concrete floors everywhere that looked like expensive, natural slate. I did not acid stain. After the pour I threw out powered charcoal and red over the still wet but firm enough to walk on. Then it was finished with the swirly machine. Turned out great except the areas I didn’t hit enough with the powder throw.
